How can I enroll my child in Dayton Futbol Academy?Dayton Futbol Academy conducts tryouts prior to each Fall and Spring season. To stay informed about upcoming tryout registration details, we encourage you to join our email list and follow us on social media. All registrations for U9 and above are managed through the mandated Demosphere system.

For other programs, we offer a user-friendly digital registration process on our website for your convenience. Whether your child is a novice stepping onto the field for the first time or an experienced player aiming to take their skills to the next level, DFA is ready to support their journey.

Dayton Futbol Academy caters to a broad spectrum of age groups. We initiate our player's journey with our Juniors Program, designed for U7 and U8 players. This program is skill-focused, helping young players make the transition from recreational soccer to a club setting, preparing them for competitive play starting at U9. As they progress to U9, players have the opportunity to participate in one of our three locations - Troy, Tipp City, or Englewood, until their final year at U12. Once players reach U13, they graduate to our DFA Academy, which offers the highest competitive levels in the region.

Our main try-outs are held every Spring for the upcoming year. We also conduct supplemental try-outs at the end of summer and during the winter for those who might have missed the main try-outs or are looking to join mid-season.

Dayton Futbol Academy proudly competes in a variety of Ohio Youth Soccer leagues. This includes the Ohio South State League (OSSL), Miami Valley Youth Soccer Association (MVYSA), and Buckeye Premier Youth Soccer League. Each of these leagues provides an opportunity for our teams to compete against top-tier youth soccer teams in the Miami County, OH area, and throughout the state.

At Dayton Futbol Academy, our coaching philosophy is centered on developing technically proficient players capable of rising to higher levels of competition. We aim to foster a love for the game and establish a safe, inviting environment where players can face and overcome challenges, demonstrating sportsmanship throughout their journey. We wholeheartedly believe in the transformative power of effective coaching and are committed to providing players with the optimal opportunities to reach their individual goals.
